The agency is commercially-focussed: AKIpress earns money from paid access to archives and from the sale of advertising-space on its websites.
The agency's websites publish between 500 and 700 news stories daily about the latest developments in Kyrgyzstan, including political, economic, social, scientific, cultural, diplomatic, and sports news.
The site of the first ever independent news agency AKIpress began functioning after a testing-period.
In the autumn of 2016, the number of unique users exceeded 2 million[4] per month for the first time, according to Google Analytics data.
AKIpress news may be followed in popular social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram.
